How to start a street pickup - DC+ (Beta)
Driver Companion+ is currently in beta. You may encounter bugs, and features and behaviour may change as improvements and updates are made.
Street pickup lets you to start a job without it being dispatched to you by the system, allowing you to pick up passengers who hail you on a rank or the street.
To start a street pickup:
- Make sure you are online.
- Depending on your taxi company's set up, your street pickup action may be a floating button or a option in the Actions menu:
- Press the three dots ( ⋮ ) in the top bar.
- Tap the 'Street Pickup' option.

- Or, tap the 'Street Pickup' button on the home screen.

- If manual tariff selection is required (depends on your company set up) Driver Companion+ prompts you to do so. Select an appropriate tariff from the menu.
Otherwise, the meter starts with a tariff selected automatically. - Select a drop off zone.
- You can then begin the journey.
- Complete the job as normal.
Note: Depending on your taxi company's set up, you may not have access to the street pickup feature.
Your taxi meter must also be initalised first before starting a street pickup.
